Sounds like he's lying about Beth Aultman (again) but it could be that scumbag had another human ATM on the hook.

He neglects to tell the rest of the story.
The house in NC where his parents lived (and where he crashed for most
of 1999-2009) was condemned not long after his dad died because of
elevated radon levels. He'd be long gone or dead by now.
Leave to to JH to never be Paul Harvey.
For those who want the latest lies from John The Con:
"John Henry 1h
Still zero income for the last couple weeks. My phone keeps going off
and I think somebody hooked me up, but then I look and it's just another payment bouncing. Definitely not the best day I've had lately."

Oddly, I couldn't find the comment he's referring to.

Shouldn't a direct reply to the offending comment suffice? Blocking
someone then replying in a separate post seems authoritarian. Why
doesn't he ever walk the walk?
keeping that promise is the ONLY reason I didn't go back to NC when
my dad had his stroke...
Did he bother to consult with the university ombudsman to see if a
hardship withdrawal was possible? WMU's readmission policy states that "Students who enroll at Western Michigan University but do not return
the following term will have one year's valid admission status in
which to re-enroll". Seems like enough time to return home and deal
with critical family issues.
and if I'd done that, I'd still be sitting in a
house I owned with all the things I accumulated in the first forty
years of my life in hand. But I didn't...*because* I promised that
person I wouldn't drop out of college in return for their help.
If this oath was so sacred that he was forced to make an heroic
sacrifice and refuse to attend to his dying father in order to
complete his education, where then is his degree?
Then they come
back eight years later to throw that in my face just for the sake of
convincing you that I'm not worthy of your support. That's why I am
crystal clear: I need support - badly! - but I will never be for
sale. Most expensive money I ever touched."
So he considers being held to a promise to use a contribution to do
some specific thing as being "for sale," and now will use
contributions for whatever he wants... and what he says at the time
doesn't matter? Why would anyone give another dime? By his terms, he
could be using donations to support fascism or date adult women or any
number of things he purports to be against, and that's just fine
because he's not for sale and you can't control how he uses your
money.

a cent.

I'm beginning to suspect that this person may not be as ethical as he
claims to be.
